Given:
Mass of the rail road car, m = 2 kg
velocity of the three cars coupled system, v' = 1.20 m/s
velocity of first car, = 3 m/s
Solution:
a) Momentum of a body of mass 'm' and velocity 'v' is given by:
p = mv
Now for the coupled system according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum of a system before and after collision remain conserved:
(1)
where,
= velocity of the first car
= velocity of the 2 coupled cars after collision
Now, from eqn (1)
v' = 1.80 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the combined car system after collision is 1.80 m/s
Answer:
The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial velocity u= 128 ft/sec
Equation of height
....(I)
(a). We need to calculate the maximum height
Firstly we need to calculate the time
From equation (I)
Now, for maximum height
Put the value of t in equation (I)
(b). The number of seconds it takes the object to hit the ground.
We know that, when the object reaches ground the height becomes zero
Hence, The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.
